Hello all,
I apologize for the lateness in getting some pictures. I did have enough time to get some today. well at least enough time to lay them out and at least redo the cooler with some padding rather than the jumbled mess. I didn't get a chance to really look at them all individually. I did see some Lorenzo's, mauro armellini, GBD, Kaywoody, O'clock, Jobey, Stern crest and at least one Peterson. The next thing to do will be a best effort inventory. Some kind folks have offered help and I will definitely be accepting and very appreciative. Anyway, here are some pictures. I apologize for bandwidth breakdown.
That's not all if the pictures but I just wanted to at least update the thread. More info to come though I'm just not quite sure when. Cheers all.

By my count that is around 230 pipes and many of them look to be in decent shape. What a great find. I can not wait to hear how this works out for you. Happy puffing.
That's a whole lot of pipes going on!
The ones that catch my eye, from left to right,
Pic 2 top: #1 GBD Perspex, #3 looks like a Comoy's made Woodstock, #5 nice grained bent, #9
bottom: #2 Sasieni Old England (?), #6 Stanwell (?)
Pic 3 bottom: #5 Stanwell (?), #6 interesting shape and finish
Pic 4 top: #9
Pic 5 top: #3 Ascorti (?), #4 nice square shanked bent
Pic 7 bottom: #6
Pic 8 bottom: #5 Stanwell (?), #7 Barling's (?)
Pic 10 top: #3
Pic 12 top: #7
bottom: #'s 2, 4, and 6
:D

You did good, hoss.
Several fellow Coloradans have already chimed in, but I could be there Memorial Day Weekend for 48 hours of straight through labor. I'll take care of my accommodations but I will require food, coffee and bourbon.

Excellent score! Those pipes look to be in really good shape, and there are some really nice looking pipes in the lot. Good luck with the restorations.
That's pretty exciting, there are some definite keepers in there. I think that GBD Perspex looks amazing!
Good grief!
You could go swimming in all those.
Definitely a few basket pipes mixed in, but I'm guessing quite a few are keepers.
